WHY THIS SHAPE
- 01 goes first in the morning because it needs bare skin below pH 3.5 to penetrate at all.
- 04 is scheduled 3 nights a week rather than nightly. Three nights a week indefinitely beats seven nights a week for eleven days.
- 09 is the highest-return product in the protocol. Everything else here is repairing what it prevents.
LEFT OUT, AND WHY
- AZELAIC 10%No redness, pigment or breakout concern selected.
HANDLING
- ▸ 04 and 03 are scheduled on separate nights. Layering them is the fastest route to a compromised barrier.
- ▸ 01 is morning-only and 04 is night-only for a reason: the pH windows are incompatible and the retinoid is photolabile.
- ▸ Retinisation — flaking, tightness, transient redness — peaks around week 3 and resolves. It is not a result. The first honest read is week 8.
- ▸ Every figure in this protocol is illustrative. This is a specimen catalogue and not medical advice.
